Meeting of Young Brothers from the Post-Novitiate of the South America Region
The young brothers of the post-novitiate of the America Sur Region met from January 16 to 30 in Uruguay, at the Marist Spirituality Center – Casa San José, with the theme “Here I am, send me!” (Isaiah 6:8). The aim of the meeting was to inspire the participants to availability and mission, fundamental values of consecrated religious life.
Among the participants were Brothers José Augusto, Levi, Hiury, from the Marist Province of Brasil Centro-Norte; Brothers Thiago, José Francisco and João Pedro, from the Marist Province of Brasil Sul-Amazonia; Brother Leandro, from the Marist Province of Santa Maria de los Andes; and Brother Daniel, from the Marist Province of Cruz del Sur, and Brothers Ignacio and Alberto Aparicio who made up the group, under the coordination of Brother Lucio.
Through the activities planned to explore both the spiritual and the cultural dimension, the Meeting of Young Brothers of the Post-Novitiate of the South America Region promoted moments of reflection, exchange and community experience; and likewise, it strengthened the Brothers’ commitment to Marist consecrated religious life, and reaffirmed the spirit of fraternity, global availability and mission of service in the light of Champagnat’s charism.
